Install and set up the VPN in Network Manager

Extract the downloaded zipped file.

Launch a Terminal session, and then enter the following command:sudo apt-get install -y network-manager-gnome

Click on your Network Manager icon on your desktop bar Notification Area. This icon can be in the shape of 2 computer screens, a pair of up and down arrows, or a wireless signal meter if you use a Wi-Fi connection.

Click on Edit Connections.

On the Network Manager Applet, click on the Add button.

Select “Import a saved VPN configuration…” and then click on Create…

Browse for one of the *.ovpn files that you’ve downloaded (on Step 2), then click on Open.

After importing the config file, you will need to manually import the User Certificate (client.crt), CA Certificate (ca2.crt) and Private Key (client.key) by using the SSL files obtained above.

Make sure Authentication Type is set to Password with Certificates (TLS) and input the username and password you obtained above.

Connect to the VPN

To connect to the VPN, just click on your Network Manager icon, then point to “VPN Connections” and then click on the VPN connection that you have configured.

The icon will blink for around 10-30 seconds. Once the VPN is connected, you will see a message stating the VPN connection has been successfully established. You will also see a “lock” on the top bar of the Network Manager icon.
